Becoming a parent is the beginning of a new life in more ways than one – both for the child and for the parent. Parenting can bring significant changes to one’s life and career and it has been well documented that women in particular can find it challenging, if not impossible, to continue their artistic development after their baby has arrived. Dyana Gravina, founder of the Procreate Project, together with artist and mother Naja Hendriksen, will deliver a workshop exploring skills and methods for maintaining an art practice while caring for small children.

This workshop will be both discursive and hands-on. It will be two hours long, and will include a break. The session is aimed at parents, but we also welcome anyone interesting in joining in. Children of attendees are also very welcome to join!

Groundwerk is a monthly series of free practical workshops for artists and creatives wishing to gain the skills to support their practice. This session is programmed as part of Art Licks Weekend.
